The New Process 242 is a 2 speed, chain driven transfer case
used by multiple vehicle manufactures.

The NP242 was first introduced into the market in the Jeep
Cherokee and Wagoneer in 1987 and later used in the Grand-Cherokee and Liberty.
Tags for the early Jeeps will read NP242AMC. Once Jeep changed ownership to
Chrysler, the tags read NP242J.

Civilian Hummer H1 5.7, 6.2, 6.5 and 6.6L came equipped with
the 242 and the 6.2 and 6.5L military version came equipped with the 242 as well.The NP218 was also used in some of the
military H1.

Dodge also used the transfer case in the Dakota and Durango
with a variation in the input shaft bearing of 16 or 24mm wide (NP242D).

To properly identify the case simply go to the back of it,
the side facing the rear tires, and look for a round silver and red tag. On the
tag you will find the model number, ratio and other information relating to the
case.

The range for the transfer case is 2WD High, 4WD High, 4WD
Part Time, 4WD Low and Neutral.

In 2003 BMW updated the transfer case for the X5 going from
a chain driven non-electric transfer case to a chain driven electric transfer
case known as the ATC500.

Although introduced in 2003 some still came with the
non-electric transfer case. The best way to know for sure is to go to the rear
of the case and look for a round tag or engravings.The easiest way is to look for an electric
motor with a connection that goes to the vehicles computer.

Unlike its predecessor, the ATC500 has a clutch pack,
electric shift motor (actuator) and the wires that go from the transfer case to
the vehicles computer.

Most issues for this transfer case, like many that are chain
driven, is the chain stretches over time and will need to be replaced.

We carry a large selection of parts for this unit including
the bearings, seals, chain, clutch pack assembly (sprocket assembly), pump,
drum and other parts.If you would
rather just put a reman unit we can help with that as well. Either way we’ve
got you covered.
